I don’t want to die with a freezer full of seeds

Very interesting read, the subject title got my attention and he lives in my area. It's definitely worth the read and gives you something to think about:

I don’t want to die with a freezer full of seeds. It’s time to rethink biodiversity and preservation | Chris Smith

Preservation can be a trap because seeds need to be saved – and also grown

I'm a seed whore.
Not just cannabis but a lot of produce seeds. Hope if something happens to me my wife would give them out for free and hopes some folks use them instead of throwing them in the trash.

The passing of SamS ignited something in me. If you truly love your collection, you will break it out, grow it, and share it with people. We need to stop sitting on these collections, or we will lose more than we know. It's just a feeling I have, but it's not a feeling I will ignore. Time is short. Grow em if ya got em.

Good point on the seeds

I started cutting back on purchasing seeds, ( the process of sourcing quality seeds can be mentally draining in itself)

Im starting to crack open some old packs that I have been holding for ages, there is some Gems buried deep in all our fridges. Before it's to late . I found a pack of white rhino from nirvana which must be 20 years old just as an example.

You can't take them into the next life, and I doubt I have anybody to leave them behind too..

I'm on same page, got fridge full of seeds. Soon becomes an obsession...
I've had a fridge for 10years plus at this stage.
Last fall I decided I had to start popping than as some reaching the 10year mark
Some potential fire just waiting to turn up...lol
So been quietly working through them,
Oldest first.
I also found some Old Times Bx1 pollen
That's Def getting dusted on my
Zilvermist hybrids.
(Super silver Haze x Kali Mist.)


But don't getí twisted,
I'm not Sams..
I'm sure he has kilos of seeds...
Legend.
I just hope his clones aren't lost..
That skunk 1, male and female, the Hindu kush and of course the haze or skunk haze.
They where 30 years old
And prob the base óf half the worlds genetics.
Without Sam's contribution.
Be a massive loss.
He was always the dude with the answer.
Already did it. To player status.
Dropping knowledge bombs daily.

Or germinate them, and get them into the dirt..
